Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia

You do not take him to small claims court. You take him back to family court and have him held in contempt. His wages cannot be garnished as he is self-employed. However, the court can still put him in jail if he does not pay. Your arrears have to be several thousand dollars though. Child support enforcement will assist you once you meet this threshold.

You should have filed a motion for contempt in court. This way you bypass Georgia child support agency. If he continues to defy the court's order, you simply return to court. The judge will put him jail until he complies.
